Working It Out: Daniel Widrig’s Exhibition Is a Process in Motion

Working It Out, a solo exhibition by artist, architect, and designer Daniel Widrig, is on view at the Neues Museum Nürnberg in Germany, through May 25, 2025. The exhibition transforms the gallery into an active studio environment, integrating digital design, fabrication, and public engagement within a museum setting.

Rather than presenting completed works alone, Working It Out emphasizes the processes behind their creation. Widrig’s ongoing production is visible throughout the duration of the exhibition, with the use of digital fabrication tools such as 3D printing, CNC milling, and robotic arms. The space is organized to accommodate live production, where raw materials, tools, and unfinished elements are displayed alongside final outcomes.

The exhibition title, Working It Out, references both the iterative nature of problem-solving and the physical dimension of material engagement. The layout and programming encourage transparency and interaction, with open workstations and scheduled workshops that allow visitors to observe or participate in digital sculpting techniques, including virtual reality modeling and generative design tools.

Widrig’s practice operates across multiple disciplines including sculpture, fashion, and architecture. His work has previously been exhibited at institutions such as the Centre Pompidou and the V&A, and includes collaborations like the 3D printed garments developed with designer Iris van Herpen. Working It Out continues London-based architect and designer’s investigation of computational aesthetics, material experimentation, and cross-disciplinary design methods. The exhibition framework positions the museum not only as a site of presentation but also as an active space for design research and production.

  • Burnt Cedar

    This is a full-time beach house for a car passionate family of four situated across from Burnt Cedar Beach in Incline Village, Nevada on the north shore of Lake Tahoe. Prior to being pulled up the hill to flumes and rails destined for Virginia City, logs were staged here as the mountains around the lake shore were logged during the silver mining years of the 1860s. Set into a neighborhood originally built in the 1950s and bordered by houses to the sides and rear, the house takes a simple box form, half buried into the slope. It faces the lake with full height glazing that encloses a loft-like plan with double height living spaces. The clients requested a space that felt like the landscape and maintained a feeling inside of being outside in the light and shadow play of the sixty to ninety-foot Jeffrey and Ponderosa pines that populate the lake shore.  Perforated wood ceilings and acoustical plaster walls soften the sounds of the concrete and glass pavilion-like house. An underground garage is excavated under the house with level access to the street, a must in this snowy climate for a family with an eclectic car collection.
